Dioskrides told how good the herb was to relieve worms from the
stomach. The Indians in New Mexico use the herb, and relatives in
the Airtimes-family, against cold and bronchitis. The Chinese people
use it to stop nose-bleeding. You just pull up a rolled leaf in your
nose and leave it there until the bleeding has stopped. Before,
people considered the herb to kept snakes, witches and trolls away.

man and a woman. In earlier days people used the herb to keep the
moth away from their clothes. If you have a lot of flies around,
hang a couple of twigs in the room, and that little problem is
solved. The same method goes for wasps. Wormwood acts as a a
stomach medicine, being useful for gastric pain, and a lack of
appetite, as well as related problems of heartburn and flatulence. It

and gallbladder secretions. Wormwood oil is a cardiac stimulant and
therefore acts, when taken in proper doses, to improve blood
circulation. Wormwood tea has been recommended to help relieve
pain during labor. The powdered flowering tops have been used to
